Sport Fishing Gear Guide

G. Loomis Conquest Mag Bass

-

All I want for Christmas is a new rod … this new rod. Two of the heavyweigh­ts in the industry joined forces to engineer this new rod, G. Loomis and Shimano. How could this happen? Shimano bought G. Loomis. Twist in the graphite was eliminated using Shimano’s Spiral-x technology – improving casting distance and accuracy. They also increased the rod strength to help set your hook and fight the fish all the way to the boat. The blanks are built in Shimano’s Japanese factory then shipped to G. Loomis in the USA to be finished. The rods also feature Fuji Torzite guides and custom reel seats. Sensitivit­y is further enhanced through using a blank-through-handle constructi­on (just what it sounds like), the handles being full cork. Eight fast action models from 6’6” to 7’6”, designed for 8-25 lb test, ¼ - 1 1/4 oz lures, with medium- heavy to extra-heavy power. MSRP: $650 - $675 USD gloomis.com
